Extract Import Rules Data from a SiB-X File

In this step you will extract the import rules data for a product family from a SiB-X file into a library. You can do this either to create new import rules for a new library, or to update the EO Types for the existing object and properties configuration.

 

  1. In System Browser select the import rules block of the library. For example, Project > System Settings > Libraries > L4-Project > Global > BACnet > [import rules].
  1. Select the Import Rules tab.
  1. In the Extract from File expander, click Browse.
  1. In the Browse XML file dialog box, select the SiB-X file to extract and click OK.
  1. If a message asks whether you want to merge or replace the rules:
  • Click OK to merge the new data into the existing rules.
  • Click Cancel to replace the existing rules.
  • The complete path of the selected file appears in the field.
